The problem

You’re broadcasting into the void.

Whoever keeps a building informed runs the same loop every week: paper notice, email, group chat, lobby print-out — with no confirmation anyone saw it, no record when something goes wrong, and no easy way to reach residents who don’t read English.

Sent ≠ seen
You post the notice and the email
And have no idea if anyone actually read it.
Same questions
The ones the notice already answered

The solution

One loop. Two halves.

Hemma commits to being brilliant at both ends — getting the message out, and making sure it actually landed.

PART 1 · THE MEGAPHONE

Write it once. It reaches everyone.

Compose a notice once — or turn four bullets into a finished one — and Hemma sends it everywhere your residents already are.

Draft & tone
Four bullets → a polished notice. Make it firmer, softer, or more diplomatic in a tap.
Translate
Auto-translated into the languages your building actually speaks.
Every channel
In-app, email, and a print-ready A4 for the noticeboard — even at zero app adoption.
PART 2 · THE RECEIVING EXPERIENCE

Residents read it. You can prove it.

The other half of the loop. Residents get a calm, clear feed in their own language — and you see exactly who saw it.

Read in your language
Every resident reads the notice in the language they chose — no app gymnastics.
One-tap acknowledge
Residents tap “I’ve read this.” The loop closes; nobody can say they weren’t told.
See who’s read it
Read + engagement, down to which units are still in the dark.
How it works

Write it once. Everyone reads it.

A few notes become a finished notice — sent everywhere your residents already are, in the language they read.

• lift 2 out of service
• contractor Thursday 9am
• use lift 1 meanwhile
Lift 2 out of service

Draft it in one tap. Four bullets become a polished, ready-to-send notice.

Why it works

Notices people actually read.

Same notice, every channel at once, in every language — then read receipts prove it landed. No other channel comes close.

Where this is going

Once comms work, the rest follows.

We start with building updates and stay there until it’s the best in the country. Tasks, messages, documents and voting are the next chapters — switched on for a building only when its manager asks. Here’s the direction.

Tasks

Every issue, tracked end-to-end.

The plan: residents report, managers assign, vendors update, owners see the trail. From first ticket to closed, the whole building stays informed.

Messages

Direct line. No new app.

1-to-1 and group chat — residents to managers, committee to owners. On the roadmap.

Marketplace

Building-only buy & sell.

Furniture, parking spots, lost & found — neighbours only, no marketplace creeps.

Documents

By-laws, minutes, contracts — one library.

The plan: searchable, permissioned, version-tracked. Owners get owner docs. Residents get resident docs. No more email chains.

Voting

Decisions counted. No paper.

Owners vote on motions from their phone, quorum auto-tracked, results logged. A future chapter.

Pricing

Free to start. $59.99 a building.

Residents never pay. Start free — up to 3 posts a month. After that, one flat price for the whole building, however many units.
